    3. Hello List, Morag asked the question below a while back and has had no replies. I am interested in the same question so I wonder if there is an answer out there? Post-1855 PRs could still be very interesting. Many thanks, Mary in Oz >I've done much family research in England and used the parish >registers way past the date of civil registration in England of 1837 >(infact into the 1930's). Do parish registers in Scotland continue >after civil registration in 1855? and if so can they be viewed? >(and where). Also burial records are sparse for the parishes I am >interested in in Argyll, would these have been recorded after >1855? and if so are they held anywhere. I know that scotlandspeople >provide civil death's after this date. But often parish registers >can reveal other things. Although it is true in England that after >1813 they become somewhat more formal.
